Who is the perfect woman to enroll in
Soulful Coaching for Busy Women?

I work best with bright and creative women who want to connect to their heart' s desire and be BIG. These women are very self-aware. They want more out of life, and are committed to their personal, professional, and spiritual growth. Yet, they have also been so busy that they are not as in touch with themselves as they would like. They know that they can benefit from outside support and someone to help hold them accountable to their dreams and goals.

 

As a result of our time together, the women I coach achieve their juiciest goals - even ones they never thought possible! - while also successfully balancing their time with work, play, and nourishing self-care.

What does the Soulful Coaching for Busy Women
process include?

1. Connect with Your Body and Listen for Wisdom:

My approach to coaching and to life centers on a deep respect for the inner wisdom that each woman holds inside of herself. In our sessions, we take the time to slow down so that you can settle into your body, connect with it, and listen for the important information you have stored inside.

 

I believe wholeheartedly that our bodies offer a great deal of important and powerful intuitive information. Yet, so often, women reject their bodies. Illness, poor body image, societal constraints, miscarriage, and over-intellectualism have cut us off from our bodies and the wisdom that is stored within.

Once you re-connect with your body, you will have access to the information that your intuition provides you with. In our process, we listen deeply for your priorities, values, and needs, and begin to envision your life based on those factors. By listening to your inner wisdom, you will also learn incredible decision-making and confidence skills from this.

 

2. Get Inspired:

It's not until you connect and listen to your body (i.e. yourself) that you can really now what inspires you. The Soulful Coaching for Busy Women process places considerable emphasis on living your life from a place of inspirations that you always have a renewed source of energy to accomplish your big dreams.

 

3. Thinking BIG and Setting Juicy Goals:

Here is where we get to look at the bigger picture of your life and set compelling goals for yourself based on your inner wisdom, what inspires, and what you know you really want for yourself. This is a time to think BIG and start believing that you deserve everything you want - even the stuff in your wildest dreams! - and that you can achieve them.

 

4. Managing Your Time (and... Making Time for Self-Care!):

There are two common obstacles for nearly every woman who are creative and busy: not knowing how to manage time and not knowing how to balance time. As you move forward with your compelling goals, it is important that you learn how to make your schedule work for you and how to balance all of the important projects, relationships, and entities in your life.
 

Managing time is essential in creating energy for yourself and your life, in reducing stress, and in making good decisions from your soul. In that spirit, together we also look at your self-care tactics so that you take the very best care of yourself, your body, your finances, and your soul.

 

5. Eliminating Distractions and Obstacles:

A big piece of managing your time and energy is about naming the distractions and obstacles in your life. Together, through the Soulful Coaching for Busy Women process, we will eliminate any and all blocks standing in your way of your SUCCESS and HAPPINESS. These distractions/obstacles might include: overeating, working too hard, relationships that no longer serve you, persistent habits, self-criticism and judgment...and many more. We will go deep and explore the origins of these obstacles, and more importantly - the purpose they serve in your life. Then, we go straight to work at learning how to release them and let them go.

 

6. Designing a Blueprint for your Bigger Visions:

A well-planned strategy is key to your success. Whether it is career transition or having a tough conversation with a loved one, a thought out strategy with clear action steps and intentions is like a blue print to get you to your goal. Together, using your inner wisdom, we create action plans, timelines, and specific action steps to help you achieve everything you want. As your coach, I provide support and guidance not only during our sessions, but in between to help keep you on track and be your cheerleader.

 

7. Identify Fears and Taking Risks:

It is my firm belief that whenever we step into bigger visions and goals for ourselves, there is always a fear to address and a risk to take. This is where we explore how you can take risks in your life in order to create energy and achieve your wildest dreams. There is a particular and powerful Soulful Coaching process to address and eliminate persistent fears from your life.

 

8. Celebrate Yourself:

My personal favorite part of the process! Once you begin Soulful Coaching for Busy Women, you will see and chart your progress& and be amazed by it. As women, so often we do not acknowledge our accomplishments and celebrate everything we are and have done. Celebrating our successes is what keeps us motivated and interested. Plus, it makes life juicier! Through our time together, you will learn how to really appreciate yourself and all that you do.

How does Soulful Coaching for Busy Women work?

Soulful Coaching happens weekly over the phone or in-person three times a month. Each session is 50-minutes long. Each week, we will focus on your personal objectives, what is most important to you. I will expect you to have spent some time preparing for our session. I will listen carefully for both what you are saying and aren't saying, ask exploratory and focused questions, offer reflections, tools, encouragement, and acknowledgement, and help you create an action plan that will support you in moving forward with your goals. You will leave each session with a deeper understanding of your current situation as well as specific and measurable action steps to take before our next session. In between sessions, I help you to stay accountable to your commitments and to yourself.

What women are saying about Joanna &
Soulful Coaching for Busy Women...

“Joanna is a calm and steady force; she holds your hand as you do the most courageous things: look deeply into yourself.”
-Ngina Duckett

"I have benefited greatly from coaching with Joanna.  She is an expert organizer and helped me break down my project into attainable goals.  I went in wanting to publish my writing and 6 months later, a short story of mine was chosen for an anthology by a major publishing company.  Now you can find me on Amazon.com!  I accomplished my goal and paved the way to work toward my even bigger goals, goals I had not even tapped into prior to Joanna's prompting.  If left to my own imagination alone, my life would be a lot smaller.  I'm grateful for Joanna's insight into my creative process, for now I am about to start up with her again to work on an even more adventurous endeavor."
-Elena Azzoni

"I became more confident, more trusting, and felt completely supported. By working with Joanna, I learned how to give myself permission to take time just for me, and then move towards what I wanted in my life."
-Erica Shane

“Joanna provides warmth, encouragement, structure, and support to help me move toward what I want in life. Whether I’m expanding my business, connecting my writing and creative work to other areas of my life, dealing with a relationship, or healing emotional wounds, Joanna is incredibly helpful. Gentle but truth-filled, empowering and questioning, she helps me see the larger landscape in which my visions live. I am learning how to move beyond simply taking action— how to live fully in my heart and body, in a way that is aligned with the voice of my soul and the larger universe.”
-Emmeline Chang

“By working with Joanna, I have regained faith in myself and my talent. It has been a process of finding out who I am, and honoring myself has become most important to me. After sessions with Joanna, I feel rejuvenated, inspired and on track.”
-Anyes Galleani

“Coaching with Joanna has helped me to stop being so hard on myself and reclaim my life. She has provided me with tools and methods to deal with personal challenges, and create a healthy work/life balance. I always leave sessions with Joanna with a good sense of self, a positive attitude and some homework/goals of the week that are realistic and keeps you in check.”
